Father Isaac Achi was burnt to death Sunday by bandits attacking his presbytery at Kafin-Koro, Minna Diocese, Nigeria, Sunnewsonline.com reports.
After an hour of fruitless attempts to force their way into the priest’s house, the criminals set it ablaze with petrol.
The deceased put a distress call to a family member who alerted the police. The assistant priest sustained gun shot wounds while trying to escape from the fire. He was rushed to the hospital.
Father Achi survived a December 2011 bombing of Saint Theresa Church, Madella, and in 2013 escaped a kidnap attempt.

Nowhere is persecution of Christians more fierce than in Nigeria, where Boko Haram has pillaged Catholics...but in the midst of that comes a growth in the Church.

@Fischl While we are still living and, hence stewards with the ability to write-off some or all of the debt of Our Master's debtors, why not enroll a few (or many) of those debtors now and have their burden reduced or altogether written-off? They (The Poor Souls) won't ever forget you for it. Practice spiritual charity.
